Will these small-cap stocks outperform ARK ETFs in 2021? [Video]

Ming Jong Tey Independent Analyst

ARK ETFs were the best performing ETFs in 2020, especially ARKG ETF where the 1 year return tops 215% as of 21 Jan 2021. The return is certainly exceptional and will be challenging to even beat it.

One of the important criteria to pick the stocks that can outperform ARK ETF is to focus on the stocks that are in great structural position with huge causes built. Based on the Wyckoff’s Law — Cause and Effect, the target price can be estimated based on Point and Figure projection method. The more causes the stock has built, the higher the target price.

Three small cap stocks, AQB (Aquabounty Technologies INC), CLLS (Cellectis) and SURF (Surface Oncology INC) have been selected based on the current price structure, volume spread analysis and the huge causes built.

Watch the video below where I run through in detail the trading plan for AQB, CLLS and SURF with price action trading strategy that comes with the potential trade entry and stop loss.
